Muse- Tricen

There shall rarely be such a beautiful muse to me as this- my darling, Tricen. Though, the years that have passed, you are now a man...

I keep a photo of us close to my heart and it will follow me wherever I go- along with my prayers for you always.

I met you during an outreach from my church and we bonded right away. You asked me to take you home with me. Oh - my love I wish I could have ! maybe I should have? but at the age of. 17 I felt so ill equipped .

I came back to visit you regularly- much to my parent's chagrin and I relished in your prescience.

One cold November day I came to visit - you and your brother were outside playing in too large underwear. I said,"aren't you cold?" and you said yes, so I entered into your house, stepped over your mother passed out on the floor, past a large man doing something in the corner, up into your bedroom. There I found warm clothing, jackets and gloves but no boots...I think I remember tying plastic bags around your feet before I left.

 

The paths of my life lead me away from you, but hardly a day has gone by that I don't think of you and pray for you. 

Into the great wide open of this Internet, this crazy world, the tear stained face I have typing this... Please, let Tricen be doing well and please surround him with love.

"Gifted" Exhibition

Ready

Today Joel and i set up my exhibition space at the Contemporary Art Show NYC. I'm excited, but slightly nervous about the next three days. I'm overwhelmed with gratitude for the people who have surrounded me with love and support. It means a great deal to me.

 Thank you!!!! And thank you to my amazing right hand man, my fiancé Joel.

Next week it's onto an awesome 3 person show at the Blank Canvas Gallery in New Hope, PA and then the "Gifted" show at the Art Trust in west Chester. 

It's a crazy run but I'm honestly just relieved that the whip at my back to create(!) is quiet for the time being. This group of work has been particularly hard for me. And I really really need some sleep.

Art scam- Saudi Arabia

I recently almost fell prey to an art scam that would have cost me at least $5,000 in inventory. If it sounds too good to be true, it sadly often is. What kind of sick person would prey on artists?! In my case it was a guy named "Rasheed" from Saudi Arabia who almost had me fooled. If other artists hadn't posted their similar experiences online, I'd be fit be to tied right now.

Please read the link below, artists.

It's a credit card fraud. They get your artwork and you get nothing. Terrible!!!
